Museum Matters: On June 21, 1917 State Highway 10 was proposed to go through Dublin as part of the original 25 state highways in the State of Texas. It was to start in Fort Worth, pass through Dublin and Comanche then on to Brownwood, to Alpine and Sierra Blanca.
In the April 16,1920 edition of the Dublin Progress it says County Commissioners Court asked for bids for the immediate construction of State Highway 10 . The funding was for the Erath County part from county line to county line connecting Fort Worth to Brownwood. “By building now, the highway in this section of the county will receive near $65,000 aid from the federal and state commissions.” (Dublin Progress and Telephone, April 16, 1920)
